Hi,
I wrote a quick image map widget for Toolkit 5. Under the hood it uses FocusPanel’s over the image to capture the mouse clicks. It’s based on a GWT example I can’t find anymore.
The
source is available
and you can
try out a demo
.
Have fun with it, and please let me know if you use it to anything worthwhile 
Looks nice, maybe we can see this in the “Directory” someday?
You bet! Just waiting for the Directory to become available
Also note that the example does not work with IE (or hosted mode browser). Any browser guru have any insights why not?
Oh, I fixed that in the version you gave me a couple of weeks ago. It’s actually used in a real™ project to great success!
If I remember correctly the bug is all due to IE’s beautiful way of always not quite working. I added a 1x1 pixel transparent gif as the background-image with repeat and everything started working.
I’ll hand you the fix tomorrow and you can update your demo.

Thanks Jonatan!
Demo updated. Also added an exception when trying to add overlapping areas to the image map.
Changes in SVN (see above).
Edit: Posted to a wrong thread, moved to a separate thread…
Hello,
Since the ImageMap component is not in the 6.1.1 release, I took the liberty of making my own custom component with the source references that you gave. The image map itself works properly (clicks on the defined areas display a popup), but for the life of me I can’t get the image itself to display - not in Eclipse nor in Firefox. Any ideas where to look? I am new to Vaadin and mostly a back-end designer, but I have Swing/AWT experience as well as some jsf experience, so I think that I got things right…

Sorry. Somewhere I picked an older version of the code. The client was looking for a nonexisting “imgurl” attribute, instead of the current “image” attribute. On to, hopefully, more important things.
